MUMBAI – Rates on short-term debt papers such as commercial papers and certificates of deposit fell because of surplus liquidity in the banking system, dealers said.

Liquidity in the banking system is estimated to be in a surplus of 287.88 bln rupees, against 288.33 bln rupees on Monday. The surplus may widen in the coming days due to inflow on account of the government's month-end spending in the form of salaries and pension payouts, dealers said.

Rates on three-month CPs issued by non-banking finance companies were down at 7.15-7.35% from 7.20-7.45% on Monday, while rates on papers of manufacturing companies were flat at 6.90-7.10% due to lower issuances.

Rates on three-month CDs were down at 6.80-7.05% compared with 6.85-7.10% on Monday.

Funds raised through CPs fell today in the absence of big-ticket issuances, dealers said.

On Monday, Reliance Jio Infocomm and Larsen & Toubro had raised 50 bln rupee in total through CPs.

Kotak Securities was the lone issuer of CPs today, raising 1 bln rupees at 7.17% through papers maturing on Feb 20. On Monday, companies had raised 61 bln rupees through CPs.

Supply of CPs also fell as some companies stayed on the sidelines due to low requirement for funds, and as some companies rolled over papers set to mature in the next few days.

Meanwhile, Axis Bank and Small Industries Development Bank of India together raised 17.00 bln rupees at 7.32% and 7.60% through papers maturing on Jun 22 and Feb 14, 2024, respectively.

On Monday, Bank of Baroda was the lone issuer, raising 30 bln rupees through CDs.
